WHY THE PENCIL IS PERFECT
I watch this video about pencil. The presenter thought pencil is perfect for her. She talked about the history about the pencil and her feeling.
I like TED this series, small thing big idea. These presenters found some unimpressive things in life for most people. At the same time, they can find the soul of these items. They are all good at living I think. This video said that the way to make pencils never change until now. The pencils are graded on through four for different hardness. Number two being the ideal hardness for general use. In life, I usually use it for exams. Originally, when pencils were handmade, they were made round. It's hard to make. Afterwards, American invested the machine to make pencils and make a standard for them. So today's pencils are all hexagonal. In the end, the presenter said "there's nothing that can be done to make the pencil better than it is."
This series video can help me quickly know the history of the items. I consider it is interesting and meaningful.
